Glad I tuned in early. You were _done_ by 5:45 on MSNBC! Most
memorable moment was when you said something re. ISS and the bimbo said,
"Yeah!", stretching the word into about 3 syllables. Then you mentioned
the gyroscopes and she asked, "That affects the steering, right?"

It must be frustrating at times. Oh well, at least you get paid to
highlight what's going on for the viewers. It's obvious you know what
you're talking about, as opposed to news show anchors who get hired
based on nothing more than their looks.
